Gregory XII’s resignation was part of the negotiations of which agreement?
Treaty of Lodi
Pact of Terracina
Concordat of Worms
Edict of Milan
Answer
The Pact of Terracina was an agreement reached in 1415 between Pope Gregory XII and his rival claimants to the papacy, Benedict XIII and John XXIII. It stipulated that all three would resign to enable a new conclave to elect a single, undisputed pope, thus ending the Western Schism that had divided the Catholic Church since 1378.
